“Following certain media speculations, it remains that one should only advise them to carefully read our statements, and not to deal with empty fabrications with a single desire: to deprive Serbia of Russia’s support. It’s typical fishing in muddy water.”
This is how Russian Ambassador to Serbia, Alexander Chepurin commented on last week’s media reports on the alleged Russian support for the partition of Kosovo, KoSSev portal reported referring to statements Ambassador Chepurin made to Sputnik.
Chepurin told Sputnik that “no matter how much they wanted to weaken Serbia, changing its borders and trying to win Kosovo’s recognition through lies and unprecedented pressures,“ “justice and law, as well as the UN Security Council Resolution 1244, which remains in full force,“ are on the Serbian side.
“Understanding this fact is the reason for our desire to help Belgrade to search for a just and long-term solution to the Kosovo problem, which Serbs and Albanians are interested in,“ Ambassador Chepurin added.
According to him, Russia “supported, supports and will support Serbia and the Serbian people,“ and that “no easy task“ will be solved and “what are the compromises possible here – it’s a matter for Serbs and Serbian leadership“.
“Processes in the world and the region have entered into a zone of high turbulence today, and it is a time to use a seat belts,“ the Ambassador Chepurin said, Sputnik reported.
